locus
is library for Erlang/OTP and Elixir that allows you to pinpoint the country,
city or ASN of IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.
The free MaxMind databases you choose are loaded on-demand and, if using HTTP, cached on the filesystem and updated automatically.
You're encouraged to host your own private copies of the databases when using this library in production, both for reliability and netiquette towards MaxMind.
Clone the repository and run make console
to bring up a shell.
URL = "https://geolite.maxmind.com/download/geoip/database/GeoLite2-Country.tar.gz",
ok = locus:start_loader(country, URL).
% URL can also be a local path, e.g. "/opt/MaxMind/GeoLite2-Country.tar.gz"
% Either block indefinitely
{ok, _DatabaseVersion} = locus:wait_for_loader(country).
% ... or give-up after 30 seconds
{ok, _DatabaseVersion} = locus:wait_for_loader(country, 30000). % {error,timeout}
% > locus:lookup(country, "93.184.216.34").
% > locus:lookup(country, "2606:2800:220:1:248:1893:25c8:1946").

locus
can deal with any MaxMind DB -formatted database that maps
IP address prefixes to arbitrary data, but no
commercial databases have yet been tested
no_cache
option when running :start_loader
debug
, info
, warning
, error
and none
lager
error
; it can be changed in the application's env
configlocus_logger:set_loglevel/1
{event_subscriber, Subscriber}
option when starting the database
Subscriber
can be either a module implementing the locus_event_subscriber
behaviour or an arbitrary pid()
locus_event_subscriber
module documentation;
most key steps in the loader pipeline are reported (download started, download succeeded, download failed,
caching succeeded, loading failed, etc.)
